  • Heterogeneous preferences for use and non‐use values provided by insects

    Open AccessPeter King, Tom D Breeze et al.ARTICLEPeople and Nature2026

    Public support is essential for reversing insect declines, yet conservation efforts often focus on instrumental values, particularly pollination and pest regulation, while overlooking the many and varied cultural ecosystem services that may underpin broader public support for conservation. Incorporating the diversity of cultural services into conservation decisions requires a deeper understanding of the use and non‐use values provided by insects.…

  • Worldviews and values of key societal actors influencing decision‐making around nature

    Open AccessZafarani Uwingabire, Adam J Vanbergen et al.ARTICLEPeople and Nature2025

    Biodiversity is vital for life on earth but faces many anthropogenic pressures. Mitigating these pressures and improving biodiversity status requires understanding the worldviews and values of actors involved in conservation or responsible for creating pressures on biodiversity. This paper contributes to the theoretical understanding of the interplay between worldviews and values and their potential influence on effective policy or practice actio…

  • Co-benefits from tree planting in a typical English agricultural landscape

    Open AccessMike Image, Emma Gardner et al.ARTICLELand Use Policy2023Cited by: 3References: 51

    Land use policy in England is encouraging tree planting on farms to meet decarbonisation targets. This could be delivered through woodland creation, hedgerow planting or agroforestry. All three approaches could provide co-benefits for wild bee populations and crop pollination services, by increasing nesting and floral resources, but their relative effectiveness has not been studied at a landscape scale. We simulated six tree planting scenarios an…

  • Globalisation and pollinators

    Open AccessJames T Murphy, Tom D Breeze et al.ARTICLEPeople and Nature2022

    Trade in animal‐pollinated crops plays an important role in global food systems: in many low‐income countries, export of pollinated crops such as coffee and cocoa plays a significant role in livelihoods, while food systems in many higher income nations depend on international trade in these crops to satisfy their local demands. Losses of pollination services therefore pose a significant risk to economies beyond the area directly affected. Using a…

  • Productivity, biodiversity trade-offs, and farm income in an agroforestry versus an arable system

  • Linking farmer and beekeeper preferences with ecological knowledge to improve crop pollination

    Open AccessTom D Breeze, Virginie Boreux et al.ARTICLEPeople and Nature2019

    Pollination by insects is a key input into many crops, with managed honeybees often being hired to support pollination services. Despite substantial research into pollination management, no European studies have yet explored how and why farmers managed pollination services and few have explored why beekeepers use certain crops. Using paired surveys of beekeepers and farmers in 10 European countries, this study examines beekeeper and farmer percep…
